Can we talk about the underrated side of fiction from a neighborhood park

A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat

I started this because my weekend felt a little stuck, and nonfiction seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

The best answer in the thread, honestly.

The vibe here is immaculate. A little friction removed goes a long way.
